Only Wii Remote and Nunchuk. The original Wii version didn't support the classic controller either.

That's a deal breaker for me.

The whole point of the Trilogy was for Wiimote support for the first 2 games. Why would you want to play it any other way if I may ask?

Super Metroid goes for $50+ and I got it for $0.30 on eshop

It's not the first rare game, but it is a welcome one.

This has to be one of the best deals out there! Three amazing games for just ten bucks is simply too good to pass up! That is despite owning the first two on Gamecube and the third on Wii, I just want the convenience of having them all in one place.

Super Mario Maker 2 Levels:

A Frolic through the Forest
M5T-48G-5XF

The Trials of the Haunted House

Platforming Peril

Did anyone try loading the save data from the Wii disc version with this? Wanna know if I can continue that, or if I'd have to start from scratch again.

I still can't believe it's happening...now if only that email eShop code I ordered would pop up so I could get it and start playing before the night ends, because I have no time to play tomorrow...

How do I save in MPT?

Controls seems to take getting used to but I'm having fun!

Are you playing the first one? Remember where you got the map. Its stations like those that allow you to save. Depending on how far you got you should have a save station just before a major fight.

Should I buy this even if I've never liked any of the Metroid games that came before these and I get disoriented playing FPS games?

Do you want to try to play this game?

People keep saying the Xbox One doesn't have Backwards Compatibility.
I don't think they know what Backwards Compatibility means...

You may be ok as it doesn't control quite like a fps but still I can't garrenty you won't get sick. I personally think it controls better then a fps.

Because tacked on motion controls suck and my hands cramp up like mad playing a game with this kind of control style for long.
Deal breaker for me too, sadly.

Don't feel compelled to try it based on previous experiences, but everyone makes it sound like I'm missing the greatest thing ever if I don't.

I wouldn't care if you had to play this game on an accordion with your toes- it's worth it to experience such a great game! Honestly though, whatever your impressions are of motion controls, I would strongly suggest setting them aside for this game. Metroid Prime Trilogy is one of the few games that actually benefit from motion controls, not suffer. The only difference is, instead of moving your right thumb, you'll be ever-so-slightly moving your right wrist. And will gain precision as a result.

Not trying to knock your opinion, I just hate to see anyone miss out on one of the greatest video games of all time because they think the controls such a detriment to gameplay, when in reality they actually make the game better. At least, most would agree that's the case anyways.

DKCR was tacked on where as this is more like the way it would've been had the Wiimote been out then. Its seamless and works far better then dual sticks. Too bad about your hands though but this control scheme works the best by far. Even far better then Skyward Sword.

Well they are pretty awesome games. I recommend playing them, but if you aren't interested then you may not like it
